Taken in the fourth round last year, Givens outshined his more heralded teammate Brian Quick by a fair margin.
At 5-11, 198, Givens has only average size, but he torched defenses for five catches of 40 or more yards – the same number as Calvin Johnson – on 124 fewer targets. Givens wound up with 8.7 YPA and 16.6 YPC, highly efficient production for a rookie on a team not known for its passing.
This year, Givens is expected to play alongside Quick with rookie Tavon Austin lining up all over the field. There's breakout potential here, depending on how Sam Bradford develops in a rapidly improving offensive environment.
